We Are Not Refugees

As a queer, feminist collective we feature books and events that reflect our interests, and the needs
of marginalized communities in the South. We strive to promote exploration and encounter by
maintaining a welcoming, sober, and anti-oppressive space. Ⓐ Ⓔ Ⓥ

Since the uprising in Minneapolis started, we've been getting nonstop calls and emails from folks wanting to read books on Blackness, anti-racism, and policing. Many of these books are now unavailable from publishers who are scrambling to reprint them.

We Are Not Refugees

Never in history have so many people been displaced by political and military conflicts at home--more than 65 million globally. Unsparing, outspoken, vital, We Are Not Refugees tells the stories of many of these displaced, who have not been given asylum.

For over a decade, human rights journalist Agus Morales has journeyed to the sites of the world's most brutal conflicts and spoken to the victims of violence and displacement. To Syria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the Central African Republic. To Central America, the Congo, and the refugee camps of Jordan. To the Tibetan Parliament in exile in northern India.

We are living in a time of massive global change, when negative images of refugees undermine the truth of their humiliation and suffering. By bringing us stories that reveal the individual pain and the global scope of the crisis, Morales reminds us of the truth and appeals to our conscience.
